Key Strokes is a simple Eclipse plug-in to display the typed Key Strokes in a small, always-on-top window. Useful for doing Eclipse screen casts no matter which platform you are on. Only works when working inside Eclipse.
You can install the plug-in from it's update site:

Shift key is working, but alt and ctrl is not. Tested using Eclipse Indigo and Win 7/Vista on two computers.
I will try it out and let you know.
So I've been trying to do a similar OSD for keystrokes of different Eclipse commands. I wrote somewhat similar code before I came across your plugin. The weird thing is, the keystrokes that are associated with commands are not displayed (e.g. CTRL + O), but the ones that are not, are displayed (e.g. CTRL + Y). Maybe Eclipse consumes the event before the plugin gets it. Any idea how to get around that?
You may want to look at the source code of my plugin here:

It installs a filter ahead of the Eclipse keybinding service.
More specifically look at:
